X Factor winner Alexandra Burke has reportedly 'split' from her fiancé Josh Ginnelly, following his surprise marriage proposal in Paris last year.

It comes after the 2017 Strictly Come Dancing finalist deleted all images of Josh off her social media account, with fans concluding they had gone their separate ways.

Since she deleted the images, Alexandra has also been seen without her engagement ring and is currently sunning it up at a friend's wedding in Italy.

A source told The Daily Mirror that Alexandra is currently in Italy for a friends wedding which is helping her escape from England and move on. They concluded, "They were having rows and realised it was better if they weren't together".

It was only 18-months-ago when the 'Bad Boys' singer posted a loved up snap of the pair, confirming their engagement. The image has since been deleted.

Revealing to her fans the news by writing on her palm 'I SAID YES', she wrote, '18-12- 17. I said YES!

'Smiling as I type this because it was the best day ever in Paris and so unexpected. My soul mate and my love asked me something that I could only have dreamt of. Being in love is one of the most magical feelings life has to offer. So grateful for this amazing man in my life who has supported my family and I through so much.' sic

Having kept the engagement private for some time, she added, 'We decided to keep this between us for a while to enjoy this special moment and that’s why we haven’t said anything... Something so amazing honestly felt so overwhelming because there was only one person I wanted to call when it happened. I know she is smiling and very happy for us both - because little did I know she knew about it. 😇' sic.

We hope they're both OK!❤️
